I'm left handed. Ubuntu has a very nice set of left-handed cursors along with the right-handed cursors.
"I'll rename the whiteglass folder in /usr/share/icons and copy the one on my ubuntu partition over so that I can then use the left-handed cursors"
Oh, if only it was that simple. Gnome just doesn't want to see the left handed cursors. Why does it only see the right handed ones?
p.s I have the mouse on left-handed setting.
BTW I'm using Gnome.

you could reverse the mouse icons with convert ? hackish but probably works..

mouse icons aren't standard images.
I know you can set the cursor in ~/.Xdefaults with this line:
Xcursor.theme: whiteglass
I do not know if Gnome honors this. The cursors have to be in the proper location, also (/usr/share/icons/<themename>/cursors/).

The whiteglass/cursors and redglass/cursors are there copied over from my ubuntu partition. In /usr/share/ and ~<user>/.icons
It just won't see the left handed versions. Even if I leave the right handed ones out and just leave the left handed ones in, they're still right handed.

Arent they xpm's? would work then i think. Otherwise you could probably convert them anyway.
I would do a find for mousecursors if they still are there when you have deleted them..

Does the orientation have to be set somewhere in the Gnome preferences?

rename the directory to 'default'
as for rotating mouse cursors, i know the set here has a PNG source which is converted to whatever X uses, so you could rotate these.
